Sanitation & Hygiene
We purchased the Ozark trail 2-Room Shower tent pictured below.
Unfortunately, this one is not currently available. https://amzn.to/3VWHQiS
There is another option (below) but I can’t speak to how well it stands up against wind, or if you can see through the fabric.

No-Rinse Body Bath: https://amzn.to/3abuywV & Shampoo: https://amzn.to/3VUYbF2
Used by NASA and Hospitals. When my dad was bed ridden this is the product they used on him, so I gave it a try and I love it! The No-Rinse formula is perfect for van camping when you aren’t able to rinse off which is a requirement with almost all other soaps. You really do feel refreshed and are odor free. I can’t say enough about this product.
